Magic Nails III

Absolutely awful. Stay away. Dirty place, uneven nails. Told me a different price on phone and asked for more when they finished. Can’t wait to rip these off

Their daughter did a horrible job! Also she was allowed to leave the salon to pick up her daughter while I was getting my nails done. I have never seen this before! Don’t go here!

Very nice! The people are nice and the work they do is nice. Tony fixed my daughters nails for prom, he shaped them and put rhinestones on. The stones fell off the next day, but we went back and he fixed them for free. I’m very happy.

I went into this location trusting the reviews, also because it was very conveniently located near my house. I walked in and the place was obviously older. They sat me down and two individuals began working on my gel manicure and pedicure. I also received a callous removal (which was the only good thing they did). The lady doing my nails seemed nice enough and was interested in keeping a conversation once I started one. Overall I was OK with the location. However the next day I wake up and one of my toes is swollen. I went to a Dr because I couldn’t walk and he told me it was infected (probably because of dirty tools which were used for my pedicure). Now these are words from my Dr and I cannot prove that the infection is from them. However I did go straight home that evening and didn’t do anything out of the ordinary. My toe is slightly better but still hurts. I keep cleaning it daily. It’s been about 2 weeks. So in conclusion… good callous removal but received an infection. If I was to balance the two I would definitely not return. Sorry.

Nope. Nope. Hell to the nope. Cold bucket of water. They barely had any nail polish choices. Extremely weak foot massage. Steer clear!

Got acrylics for the first time ever, and was taken care of by Kim.
She’s really patient (especially with all my obnoxious questions) and takes her time to do them exactly how you want. Even if it means starting over! The price is reasonable and the shop is clean. Can’t ask for more than that.

They are all very nice and friendly here. It also doesn’t hurt that they are located 2 blocks from my apartment. It’s very affordable, clean and there was no wait. Very quick as well if you’re in a rush. Keeping in mind we came here on a monday.

Nancy Does an Amazing Job. friendly and not only her but stuff surprise is so affordable they are truly nails Artist.

I have been loyal to this nail salon place for five years. Everyones here is so sweet. Tony is the absolute best for acrylic nails. He might be a bit rough but he creates perfection. I have never been disappointed. The pricing is reasonable and they have a great variety of colors. I have sat in the large massage pedicure chairs and you do have to ask for it because they charge more for it. I love this place and it is very convenient for me to come here.

I started noticing this nail salon on my Starbucks and Kinnara run. It seemed a little out of place in the plaza but I decided to give it a try anyways. Boy, am I glad I did. Tony did an awesome job on my nails and I love the candy cane french tip Nancy added to it. So ready for the Holidays. The lady next to me got snowflakes on hers which was pretty too. I’ll definitely be back. Great place for a great price. Ahh! Still can’t get over how cute my nails are. :D

Nancy and Tony are the best when it comes to nails. They are the sweetest and funniest people you will ever meet. They love to make conversations with you and they will always do their best to give you what you want. If you do not like something, they will redo it for you in a heartbeat. Very good place to get your nails done. I would give them 10 stars if I could. Best experience ever. Very happy with the results.

I have driven by this place many times and think to myself I should stop in there one day. Well today I did just that! Its not a very big place but, the people are friendly and did an excellent job! Not to mention I was in and out within 30 minutes of sitting down. Its a no frills shop but, it is in a convenient location and my nails look great! Will definitely be back :)

I started coming here because Starbucks was right next door… Bonus right., So anyways going back Nancy and her coworkers are extremely humble, they always have a smile in their face. I love coming here because you dont need an appointment they will attend you as soon as they can, costumer service is always on point. They have these hot towels for a finish pedicure the most awesome feeling i might say makes it just gives it an extra touch!
Me and my daughter are regular costumers:)

Perfect neighborhood nail salon. Nancy was great and did a great job on my toes. Someone else did my hands and they turned out well (My left thumb turned out a little crooked. I should’ve paid more attention when he asked if they were okay). She said they’ve been in business here for more than 20 years!
They had decent variety of nail colors. Prices were very reasonable (mani-​pedi plus tip was under $ 30).
One more thing. This parking lot is not super big and there are lot of businesses here, so try to go when it’s not a lunch or dinner rush. That way there’s ample parking.
Will definitely back.

I read the reviews for this place and still decided to get my nails done. you know what they say «dont knock it, until you try it» so i did. yeah I really didnt like the fact that it smelled like noodles but just like everyone else they have to eat… so you cant blame them… anyway, it was empty when I got there which made me feel skeptical about there work. but again I didnt want to judge until I gave them a chance. so i was seated ritgh away. it was $ 20.00 dollars for mani and pedi. I chose my colors and they started the work… 10 minutes into it about 3 girls walked in. so «good timing» if i dont say so myself. anyway, they were done I inspected and I liked very much! I mean I didnt expect art you know. but they did a great job… and a week later my nails look great. i love it.

I have been coming here for years – the owners of this place, Nancy and Tony are the best as well as the rest of their staff. They’re all friendly and make you feel comfortable. Not like all those other nail salons where all the vietnamese ladies speak in their language hackling like hyenas, you just know they’re talking crap about you or your feet (lol). It’s not the prettiest of places but I’ll take friendly service over classy, expensive and rude any day. Their prices are great too. They always do a good job, I’ve received compliments on my pedis which is something because I’ve got real ugly feet! I’ve never had to wait either even without an appointment. They have choice location – starbucks, sushi, thai, mexican food all in the same shopping center. Other than the lousy parking lot, I have nothing bad to say about this place. So long as I live in the valley, I will never go to anywhere else.

I love coming here because I never have to wait. They do a great job and the price is very reasonable — $ 13 for a pedicure. Of course the price goes up if you add on the bells and whistles but it’s still totally affordable and they are extremely nice and welcoming.

I have been going there for 8 years. I never have to wait everytime I go in. I get a manicure, pedicure and my eyebrows waxed, never disappointed.
If you want to sit in the big chairs, you have to ask, it costs more, otherwise you will be seated in the regular chairs.
As for the T. V, sometimes they have Vietamese soap operas playing ect. don’t hate on it because you can’t understand it. Instead be open to a different culture, they will even tell you what the people are saying in the song or what the soap opera is about if you ask.
Nancy, Tony, Rose, and Kim are so very nice, I will never go to any other nail shop.

After reading all of the reviews for this place (on Yahoo), I decided to go in and have a Pink and White full set done. I have had acrylics off-​and-​on (more on) for the past 9 years, so I have been to quite a few different places. As most women, I have grown to know what I like and don’t like. And honestly, this place did the worst Pink and White, well even acrylics in general. I was skeptical just walking in. TV was on full blast in a language I couldn’t understand, and the gawd-​awful smell of food. I specifically went to Tony (as most people said he is the best). He cut both of my pinky’s with the nail file (big ouch!), and I don’t know if he even disposed of that nail file after he cut me (as there was blood on it). The acrylic was not drilled /​filed down enough to match my nail bed, so it looks like I bought nails at a local Walgreens and glued them on myself (I had someone even tell me this themselves. How embarassing!). Not to mention, the pink part really isn’t pink at all. Defintely not worth the $ 30 (not including tip) spent. I would rather spend the extra money and go to Serenity Day Spa in Northridge. Connie does the best nails. The only reason I did not go to her this time, was because she had been out on leave. Very dissapointing experience!
Not to mention, his wife Nancy was not very personable. It seemed like she could not wait for me to leave once she put on the clear top coat. It was 2:00pm, so it was not like they were about to close. If I asked them to fix something on my nails, coincidentally they had something to talk about in their lanuage.
I would never go back to this place; even if it was the last nail salon in town.

I was pressed for time for a pedicure, so I decided to try this place out since it’s really close to my house. It’s in a strip mall in the back corner. The shop is clean and they were very friendly. I was able to have them start right away, and she did a decent job. I believe it was only $ 12.
As Megan said, when I looked around I wondered why I wasn’t in the big pedicure chairs… but since I was in a hurry I didn’t dwell on it.
The one and only factor that would make me hesitate to go back: they don’t seem to know how to switch from «there’s nobody in here, let’s chill» mode to «hey, we have a customer» mode! There were two people sitting on the front couch with their shoes off and the television was BLARING a Vietnamese soap opera. This did not change when I walked in the door, and it should have!
Between the loud TV and the constant yammering of the staff to each other, I started to get a headache! We’re all used to the staff in nail shops speaking to each other in Vietnamese (it sounds like they’re talking sh*t about you, even if they’re actually not), but they could at least switch the channel to the news or ANYTHING else when customers come in. I even made fun of how bad the singer on the TV show was – think of a cat in heat trapped in a barbed wire cage, seriously– and they still didn’t get the hint! The guy actually started singing along! Sheesh. And they never put their shoes back on, which grossed me out a little.
I suppose I’d go back if I were in a pinch again, but my search continues for a place in the Valley equivalent to Mani Pedi Cutie in Hermosa Beach.
